How to: Assign Reason Codes to Journal Lines

You can assign reason codes to individual transactions. You may want to use reason codes only for certain transactions or you may want to assign a different reason code to a transaction than the code assigned to the journal batch or journal template.

To assign a reason code to a journal line

  1. In the Search box, enter General Journal, for example, and then choose the related link. You can add reason codes to other journals as well.

  2. On the journal line, select a code in the Reason Code field. If the Reason Code column is not visible, open the shortcut menu for the column headings, and then choose Choose Columns.

  3. Select Reason Code from the list of available columns, choose the Add button, and move the column up or down to where you want it.
